Ashe's return declared the failure of Sejuani's quick victory strategy. After seeing their war mother, the Avarosans, whose morale was boosted, finally temporarily forgot the fear of death.
The city wall can no longer stand.
Sejuani, who was aware of the problem, now needed to consider how to withdraw from the battle - she looked past the swarming Avarosan people who were not afraid of death, and looked at the city wall in Frost Harbor.
There are densely packed tents underneath.
Due to lack of productivity, although the Avarosans built tall city walls, they were unable to search for enough stones or bake enough bricks to build residential buildings. Therefore, including Ashe's War Mother Hall, most of the
Most of the buildings are still tents.
At most, it has changed from a mobile tent to a permanent tent.
In order to avoid the direct invasion of wind and snow as much as possible, many tents are densely packed together under the city wall of Ningshuang Port - in Demacia, there are no such residential buildings near the city wall, but in Ningshuang Port
Frost Harbor, the Avarosan people obviously do not have this experience.
Narrowing her eyes slightly, Sejuani quickly found a way. She took the flag of Winter's Claw from the attendant warrior behind her, and then shouted loudly: "Avarosa's cowardly war mother has been
She’s back, I’m going to fight her head-on!”
Although it was a retreat, Sejuani's words had a subtly more heroic meaning. The soldiers of Winter's Claw cheered, and their morale was actually somewhat boosted.
"Now, I need a few real warriors to teach these Avarosans who only know how to hide behind the city wall a lesson!" Sejuani continued, "Light up the torches you carry with you, go and light their camps, ignite
Their warehouses tell them with burning flames that hiding behind the city wall in fear is doomed to death!"
Sejuani's words once again caused a burst of cheers from the Winter's Claw warriors. In the cheers, many people took out the ignition devices they carried with them, ignited everything that looked flammable around them, and then rushed towards the city wall.
under.
The Winter's Claw people obviously have their own unique opinions on arson. Even after hearing Sejuani's shouts, the Avarosan warriors were already prepared, but they still bypassed their defense like loaches.
He rushed to the camp closest to the city wall and found the most flammable oil-soaked rope or tanned fur.
Amidst the anxious and angry shouts of the Avarosans, blazing flames burned and thick smoke began to rise.
As for these "warriors" who set fire, it was as if they had accomplished a feat worthy of bragging, laughing in the flames and letting the Avarosans' weapons pierce their bodies, and finally perished in the flames.
The fire began to ignite from the tent under the north city wall, and then started to burn all the way south with the wind. The rolling tongues of flames were like a mighty fire demon, which made the people of Avarosa dizzy. They allotted manpower to put out the fire.
On the one hand, he rushed towards the city wall, wanting to keep all invading enemies behind.
However, Sejuani and other Winter's Claw warriors had taken this opportunity to get off the city wall, mounted their mounts, returned to their formation, and began to greet the returning Ashe.
……………………
Ai Xi also saw the fire in Ningshuang Harbor from a distance.
Like other Avarosan people, Ashe was also dizzy when she saw the raging flames burning, but the anger did not go to her head. She did not go to Sejuani, but bypassed the cold winter.
The encirclement of Claw returned to Ningshuang Port from the direction of the seaside.
When Ashe returned to Ningshuang Port, the fire in the city had basically been brought under control. The Avarosans, who lacked the means to extinguish the fire, quickly destroyed some tents and used an isolation belt to prevent the fire from spreading.
Unfortunately, even though they moved very quickly, almost a quarter of the tents in Ningshuang Port had been burned to ashes in the flames. A warehouse near the north of the city had also been burned down, and hundreds of thousands of pounds of various
The food was burned.
The excited Avarosan warriors petitioned for battle, and some even cut their faces and swore to make the Winter's Claw marauders pay the price!
However, as a war mother, Ai Xi did not agree to go out to fight in the city, nor did she allow any form of pursuit.
"War Mother!" The war priest who had delivered news to Ai Xi had already lost an arm. When Ai Xi issued an order prohibiting leaving the city to fight, he crouched in front of Ai Xi in pain, "Winter Claws"
Someone burned down my home and took off one of my arms. This hatred cannot be eliminated no matter what!"
"It is for revenge that we have to stay in Frostport." Ashe raised her voice, "The raiders of Winter's Claw have no supplies. They have nothing to eat now, and soon they will be hungry and cold.
He will become our messenger of revenge and bring them the coldest pain!"
Hearing what Ashe said, the warriors of Avarosa finally calmed down a little, of course, just a little - many people still couldn't accept watching the marauders leave, and couldn't accept only relying on cold and hunger to seek revenge.
Rather than letting their enemies die of cold and starvation, they prefer to complete their revenge with their own hands.
"We suffered a shameless sneak attack by the Winter's Claw." Ashe, who knew the soldiers' thoughts well, continued, "In Frost Harbor, we launched a heroic counterattack, but judging from the results, our combat experience is not as good as these calamities.
The looters come in abundance - this is not because we are not brave, but because we lack actual combat and have not experienced a lot of battles. Although we have the determination and courage to defend our homeland, we do not have the means to protect everything!"
Ashe's self-examination silenced everyone. Even if they were unwilling to admit it, these Avarosan people who had personally experienced the battle had already realized the huge gap between themselves and the enemy.
As Ashe said, their combat experience is not as good as those of the marauders!
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "So, everyone who has experienced this battle is a precious seed. You cannot waste your precious lives until they can be completed by wind, snow and hunger.
In revenge, you must use the rest of your life to pass on this life-and-death experience!" Ai Xi's voice rose again, "Living with shame and hatred is more courageous than impulsively seeking death.
Our choice, warriors of Avarosa, our life goes on, and we still need to get through this year’s extremely cold winter!”
The warriors of Avarosa were silent. Although they were willing to believe in their war mother, for the Freljord people, it was much more difficult to endure humiliation than to give it a try. They could only watch Ai helplessly.
Nozomi, waiting for her to continue.
"Today, if one more warrior falls here, there will be one less pair of watching eyes in the spring herd, and the cunning direwolf will have one more chance to sneak attack on Ernuk's calf." Ashe opened her arms,
"And, I guarantee, today's sneak attack will never happen again! From today on, Avarosa will not only accept homeless people, but also brave and capable warriors. In addition to the towering city walls,
, we also need people who are dedicated to guarding the city wall - if you want revenge, then train well next!"
……………………
Relying on his personal prestige, Ai Xi finally suppressed the enthusiasm of the martial arts faction to pursue. While continuing to be vigilant, Ai Xi began to clean up the ashes in the city.
In this situation, Sejuani felt very uncomfortable.
As mentioned before, in order to create a time difference, Sejuani and her elite Winter Claws stayed up all night last night, abandoning all the big animals, marching all the way through the night after a good meal, and then leaving Ashe behind.
The elite team he led arrived at Ningshuang Port in the early morning and launched a surprise siege.
As a result, at a critical moment, Ai Xi's return led to the failure of the siege. After the war, Ai Xi did not lead his team to chase them out. Even though a large area of his home was burned, he still sat on the city wall and waited patiently, as steady as an old dog.
Sejuani cannot accept this outcome.
Due to the harassment of Ashe and the elite team led by her, Sejuani's plan to outsource the enemy was greatly compromised. Unlike the battle east of the Nyuskara Pass, since the two sides began to contact, the Winter's Claw no longer
They were unable to break through any large strongholds. Even though they were able to occasionally raid a few small tribes along the way and get some supplies from these unlucky people, the quantity was quite limited.
Even though Sejuani came all the way and the number of warriors following her exceeded 7,000, the rations they carried with them could not sustain even one meal.
Under the breath of Anivia, winter has arrived in the Freljord. The Winter Claw army, unable to take down Frost Harbor, is now almost exhausted.
We are like rice and steel. Without food, the Winter's Claw warriors will soon fall into weakness. No matter how powerful the warrior is, they will become lambs to be slaughtered under the debuff of hunger.
There was no way to advance; no way to retreat. Sejuani had no idea for a moment.
"Let's go." As she was pondering, Udyr finally whispered, "Let's go while we can still get rid of them!"
"...Where to go?" Sejuani gritted her teeth, "If we go back the way we came, I'm afraid not even one-tenth of the people will be able to return to the Nyuskara Pass."
"We can take a short detour. There are not completely no places for supplies along the way." Udyr replied, "The guide said that from here to the Newskala Pass, there are many other places besides Avarosa.
The existence of tribes - although we cannot completely defeat Avarosa, we can also change the targets of the plunder."
"But the savings of those small tribes may not be enough." Sejuani shook her head, "We must find a large tribe to get enough supplies for a safe retreat."
"We still have a lot of mounts."
"No, these mounts cannot move." Sejuani shook her head, "This is the basis of our war. The warriors of Winter's Claw will not abandon their weapons and mounts. They are not useless Enuk!"
"Then what do you want to do?" Udyr frowned upon hearing this, "Will you continue to attack?"
"No, let's go north and go around the frozen plains!" Sejuani took a deep breath, "You go contact the bear tribe. You are a beast spirit walker, so you can communicate with them, right?"
Sejuani's words made Udyr's eyes widen. He looked at Sejuani in surprise, seemingly surprised by her decisiveness and boldness.
"Werebears, they are not easy people to talk to." Udyr's right hand rested on the tattoo on his left arm. "They are the losers. They are people who lost themselves and fell into madness under the power of Volibear. Cooperate with them.
Not a wise choice."
"But you are a beast spirit walker." Sejuani looked at her sworn father with burning eyes, "I have seen your ability to communicate with the old gods."
"This is not a simple matter. We can return through a more reliable method -"
"That means failure." Sejuani interrupted Udyr rarely, "The War Mother should not fail, as that would make her people disappointed in her."
Udyr's lips trembled.
The tall and strong beast spirit walker narrowed his eyes slightly and stared blankly at the war mother riding on the back of the Juvask wild boar in front of him. In Sejuani, he saw the determination of his old lover, as well as a
Completely different ambitions and ambitions from hers.
An indescribable pride and worry welled up from the bottom of his heart, and Udyr could only breathe out heavily in the end, and then nodded silently.
After getting the answer she wanted, Sejuani took the battle flag representing herself and raised it high.
The warriors of Winter's Claw began to gather.
"The cowards of Avarosa don't dare to fight us!" Sejuani's voice was still high-pitched, still full of passion and fighting spirit, "Then we will sweep away the Sifreljord, sweep away their allies, and let this place
Everyone in the country knows that the Avarosans are just a bunch of cowards who only know how to hide behind the city walls!"
……………………
Thick dark clouds covered the sky again.
Under the blow of Anivia's breath, heavy snow fell again, covering the scorched earth in Ningshuang Harbor and covering the bloodstains on the city wall.
The first large-scale battle between Winter's Claw and Avarosa quietly drew a comma in this heavy snow - both Ashe and Sejuani, they knew very well that this was not
end.
The Avarosan people were licking their wounds behind Frost Harbor, waiting for the arrival of spring; while the warriors of Winter's Claw followed the War Mother and trudged up the north mountain, crossed the Icethorn Mountains, and crossed
into the territory of the Ursine Tribe.
Udyr used his amazing willpower to withstand the test of the old god's will. Here, Winter's Claw recruited a group of Lost allies - and then, together, the two sides swept the entire frozen plain.
In this primitive and wild land, Sejuani received enough supplies and finally returned to the Freljord Plains smoothly, ending her expedition as a victor.
After the Winter's Claw army left, a survivor named Tryndamere climbed up from the ruins of his tribe. Dragging his seriously injured and dying body, he began to pursue a journey of revenge.
Winter's Claw destroyed his tribe.
Then, he will go to the forces hostile to Winter's Claw.
After several inquiries, Tryndamere embarked on the road to find the Avarosa tribe.
